Hello, first we heard that cluster bombs had been used in residential areas of Ukraine, now there are reports that civilians have been run over by tanks while trying to flee Russian troops in Bucha. We’ll hear more from the UN rights office on what steps it’s taking to verify those claims, on a day when the General Assembly decided to suspend Russia from the Human Rights Council.
The war in Ukraine has also caused a food crisis for hundreds of millions of people in the Middle East and North Africa, the UN Children’s Fund tells us, and it has also issued an alert about unrelenting violence in eastern DR Congo.
We’ll have closing comments too from Solange Behoteguy Cortes; stay tuned to hear the powerful Ukrainian war poetry that she’s unearthed.
